Chapter 40
"Okay, okay, let's get down to business."
Kofi moved aside from the door, and with a wave of her hand, a professional team led by Xi Lian rushed in.
Those who were moving the bodies were moving the bodies, and those who were cleaning the scene were cleaning the scene.
The small robot, whose job is to do housework, was stopped aside and kept spinning in circles, unable to find work to do.
"What are the arrangements for the future?" Coffey asked. "My people are at your disposal."
"Find a suitable place to arrange the work. I need comprehensive information about the Red Scorpions, including but not limited to the location of each base, basic information about the members, and the circumstances of the crimes, so that I can determine whether to execute them directly by firing squad."
"Also, tell me the functional classification and specific number of your personnel, as well as the total number of all types of munitions currently available for deployment."
"It's fast." Yun Piancheng said.
Kofi suppressed his smile and said seriously, "Okay."
"Come with me."
Ji Huai pricked up his ears and listened carefully to the noise downstairs, knowing that Yun Piancheng was going out to do something very important.
Why don't you call me when something happens?
Ji Huai bit his lips tightly, feeling very uncomfortable.
He wanted to give in but couldn't get angry, and Yun Pian was so sincere now that he wouldn't fall for it at all.
Ji Huai really didn’t know what to do. He could only wait for tomorrow’s meeting to see what advice Nanyang could give him.
Forget it, let’s turn our grief and anger into appetite.
Ji Huai dealt with his own emotions and absorbed the resentment of the workers downstairs from afar.
It’s not enough to eat, my mouth is dry.
After confirming that Yun Piancheng had left with Kofi, Ji Huai called the little robot to bring him snacks, but no one showed up no matter how long he waited.
What's going on?
Ji Huai walked down the stairs with a wooden face.
Xi Lian, who was supervising, heard the extra footsteps, turned around and met Ji Huai.
"Hi~ Little Ji Huai~" Xi Lian smiled and waved, "Why didn't you go to practice shooting today?"
"Oh, why did Cheng Yun leave? Doesn't she want you today?"
"Would you like to practice shooting with me? I'll teach you. I'm very patient."
Ji Huai:.
He walked right past Xi Lian, searching for the little robot.
Although the little robot was good at housework, it didn't know how to clean up the crime scene. It could only smear the blood evenly in every corner of the living room. Now it was squatting pitifully in the corner, which made Ji Huai feel very sympathetic. He felt that he was useless and wanted to walk over and squat in the corner with the little robot.
Feeling embarrassed, Xi Lian curled his lips and shrugged without saying anything more. He asked others to continue working and did not forget to make way for Ji Huai.
Ji Huai picked up the robot with one hand, went to the place where snacks were stored, pulled out two bags of potato chips, and went upstairs with a cold face.
They are so noisy, Ji Huai thought.
Carrying the robot to the second floor, Ji Huai found a place to put it at random, then returned to the guest room, unpacked the potato chips, and chewed them mechanically.
The tomato-flavored potato chips that he originally liked tasted bland in his mouth, and the crisp sound of the chips breaking hypnotized Ji Huai's consciousness.
His thoughts began to drift away.
Ji Huai recalled the previous discussion about partners that was triggered by gender issues with Yun Piancheng. From the beginning to the end, he failed to figure out what love was in the beginning. He was just afraid of being abandoned, so he blindly wanted to be Yun Piancheng's partner and stay with her forever.
Because he wanted to be a partner, he tried to learn how to love. In order to learn how to love, he defined his feelings for Yun Piancheng as love. However, the final result of the theory and practice was Yun Piancheng's estrangement.
So what exactly is love?
Is it fear of abandonment? Is it a sense of dependence? Is it worry?
Ji Huai didn’t know, he only knew that he was very scared.
It seemed that all the judgments and efforts he made these days were moving in the wrong direction and were defined as mistakes by Yun Piancheng.
Yun Piancheng was congratulating him on growing up, but Ji Huai knew that not only had he not grown up, but his established concepts had been completely shattered, and he was in a state of emptiness.
He is an algae plant without roots. After losing the protection of the stone, he can only float on the water, waiting for the next obstacle to accept him.
He suddenly thought that he had no home.
But do monsters also need homes?
It's so sad. It would be better if I hadn't met Yun Piancheng in the forest in the first place. That way, he would always be the cool and great little monster who would punish anyone who made him uncomfortable.
They are the darlings of the world and are energetic creatures who should not have any worries.
Have you forgotten Yun Piancheng?
Ji Huai couldn't bear to do it.
Yun Piancheng only regards him as a friend.
Through learning, Yun Piancheng knew that a person can have many friends.
In other words, in Yun Piancheng's eyes, he is no different from Kofi, Qin Yin, Nanyang, and even Leah.
This realization made Ji Huai very depressed, and at the same time he was confused as to why Yun Piancheng treated him differently from other friends.
Ji Huai couldn't figure it out, so he simply dragged out the chat box with Nanyang and started typing.
[Ji Huai]: Do your friends bite you? Do they touch your head?
【Nanyang】：?
[Nanyang]: Leah? It happens all the time, and a bite isn't a big deal. If we had a falling out, we could just fight.
【Nanyang】: But I have to add that ordinary friends are not enough.
Ordinary friends...
Ji Huai recalled what Yun Piancheng said.
Yun Piancheng said they were friends, without adding the qualifier "ordinary" in front of it.
He was unsure and continued to ask.
[Ji Huai]: So what is your relationship?
Nanyang just felt confused.
[Nanyang]: We are best friends. If you bite me, I will hit you. We can quarrel and go out to watch a movie or go shopping.
【Nanyang】：How normal is this?
Ji Huai was lost in thought, and suddenly came to his senses.
[Ji Huai]: It turns out that Yunyun and I are best friends!
Nanyang widened her eyes in disbelief, unable to believe that such a beautiful child was actually a fool, and her common sense in getting along with people in human society was almost zero.
No wonder when they first met, Yun Piancheng greeted her by saying that Ji Huai's living environment was different from others, and asked her not to tell Ji Huai everything, for fear that he would learn something strange.
【Nanyang】：?
[Nanyang]: Okay, stop letting your thoughts run wild. If you continue, I feel like you’re going to say something shocking again.
【Nanyang】: You guys are definitely not! ! ! !
[Nanyang]: I can’t do it anymore. I have to call Leah tomorrow and ask her to teach you how to be a love-brained person.
【Nanyang】: You must be firm!!!
Ji Huai, who had just come to his senses, became depressed again. After a while, he started to argue.
[Ji Huai]: Didn’t you say that those who are in love should be shot?
【Nanyang】:.
【Nanyang】: What do you know.
【Nanyang】: Love brain, yes, men
【Nanyang】: The best dowry!!!
Ji Huai understood it instantly, and searched for a quick tutorial on love brain. He evolved from watching movies to reading novels. While Yun Piancheng was not at home, he played out all the male protagonists in love brain novels, from a white-faced and black-faced little milk dog to a sinister and crazy villain.
He can be called the best actor.
After the performance, the professional team downstairs had already left. It was ten o'clock in Belu City time, and Yun Piancheng still hadn't returned.
The clinic was empty, and Ji Huai could only hear the rumbling sound of the small robot's wheels in the dead silence.
His mood became depressed again, and he suddenly didn't know what the purpose of his disappearance for studying the Love Brain Guide was.
Because he... couldn't even be sure whether his feelings for Yun Piancheng were love, and whether it was really necessary to learn these things.
He may never learn to love, nor become anyone's partner, so there is naturally no need to implement the love brain principle.
Click.
The sound of the door unlocking echoed in the extremely quiet room.
Yun Piancheng is back.
Ji Huai didn't know whether to go out and see her. He was afraid to hear Yun Piancheng's words of drawing a line between the two again.
While hesitating, the footsteps moved from downstairs to upstairs and stopped at the door of Ji Huai's room.
Ji Huai subconsciously held his breath.
Is she going to come see him?
If she came to see him, what would she say to him? How should he face her?
Ji Huai's thoughts were in a mess and he felt a little flustered.
Yun Piancheng stood at the door of the guest room, keeping a distance of one meter. This distance would not allow the door lock to sense her and open the door automatically.
She lowered her eyes, still did not move forward, turned and walked towards her room.
Listening to the footsteps fading away, Ji Huai, who was originally a little excited, was suddenly poured with a basin of cold water, and he felt completely deflated.
Just friends.
After struggling for three seconds, Ji Huai couldn't help but walk out of the room.
The door of the master bedroom did not restrict Ji Huaishang. As soon as he stood at the door, the door slowly opened.
What caught my eye was a half-naked back with a twisted scar across it, which was very eye-catching.
Has Yunyun suffered a lot of injuries in the past?
It felt very painful, Ji Huai pursed his lips, unable to bear to watch any longer.
Yun Piancheng, who was changing clothes, paused and put on his home clothes as if nothing had happened.
"Is there anything wrong, Xiao Huai?" Yun Piancheng asked.
When Ji Huai heard this, he was speechless.
He didn't know what reason he should use to talk to her.
Yun Piancheng seemed very tired. Ji Huai looked at her expression and sensed the emotions in the air.
"I...I want to ask if you are in a bad mood today."
Are you in the mood?
Yun Piancheng casually smoothed up his hair, sat on the bed, and crossed his left leg over his right leg.
Today, a plan was formulated to eliminate the Red Scorpion, Kofi's men and munitions reserves were inspected, and the various strongholds and the trajectory of Dan's actions that were deliberately exposed were fully investigated.
Yes, intentionally exposed.
This made Yun Piancheng unsure of what Dan was trying to do.
But they can always be suppressed by force.
Work is always annoying, Yun Piancheng did not deny it: "Yeah."
"Then, do you still need me?" Ji Huai asked cautiously.
Yun Piancheng said without hesitation: "Yes."
It turns out that I am still useful.
Ji Huai's mood improved a lot and he finally smiled sweetly.
Knowing that Yun Piancheng was keeping a distance from his human form, Ji Huai transformed himself back into a little ball and tentatively climbed onto Yun Piancheng's thigh.
It’s great that I didn’t get kicked out.
Ji Huai didn't dare to rub Yun Piancheng's hand again. A little white ball just lay on his legs, slowly absorbing the bad emotions.
He hopes this process can be longer and longer.
Xiaohuai likes to interact with Yunyun.
Yun Piancheng pursed his lips, his mood not much better.
In her impression, Ji Huai was a little white ball with a bad temper who would bite people, a humanoid creature who would do bad things secretly but would stick to her and act coquettishly.
Ji Huai shouldn't be so cautious.
After I finish dealing with the Red Scorpion matter, I’ll have a good chat with Ji Huai.
